Both have their advantages: the original Resident Evil 4 is a timeless classic, whereas the remake updates its more controversial aspects.
Former Naughty Dog dev says Resident Evil 4 inspired Unchartted and even Gears of War, particularly the over-the-shoulder camera view.
It revolutionized third-person shooters, in a genius way that gives you full control of aiming.
No, I mean RE4. Like the whole snap to over-shoulder and precision aiming was what I meant.
I won’t deny Winback does pave the way in some respect. But it’s not the same at all.
I thought this was common knowledge. Resident Evil Revolutionised over the shoulder aiming in 3rd person shooters/action games
Influenced basically every third person action game made after it, GTA uses the over the shoulder perspective when shooting since the 4th installment, Red Dead Redemption 1 & 2 too and the Batman Arkham series has the over the shoulder perspective as the main camera throughout the whole game series.
Obviously there are a ton more examples but you get the point 🗿.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.
Includes savings on The Crew: Motorfest, Resident Evil 4, and much more.
I think it’d give you a stronger appreciation for what was done with the Remake. Hell, I say that’s the case for all Remakes.
I don’t believe the remake includes the Ada Wong campaign, ‘Separate Ways’. If newcomers want more RE4 when they’re done, consider picking up that expansion via the 2005 remaster. You’ll get to see who rings the bell, among other things.
I never played 4 much . I think I started it and immediately thought this doesn’t feel like RE. I own it on PS3 and 4 I believe so I’ll play it someday . My taste changes slightly over the years so maybe I could appreciate it now when I didn’t back then. I still haven’t played any of the remakes though I own them all heh . I’ll probably grind them all out this summer
